The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has cautioned the
factional National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Mr Adams
Oshiomhole, to stop behaving like an attack dog.
PDP notes with utter dismay that Oshiomhole, since assuming
office as chairman of the factional APC, had abandoned the path of wisdom
expected of him and have become noisy, loquacious, rapacious and completely
immodest in all his actions and utterances.
If Oshiomhole had limited his childish abuses to President
Muhammadu Buhari, whom he dismissed as indolent, ineffectual and condoning
indiscipline; or to the ministers of their incompetent government, whom he
wholesomely described as dishonorable; the
governors left in his faction, whom he said are undeserving of return tickets
in 2019; and members of his faction, who he had rendered directionless, the PDP
would have ignored his attention seeking antics.
However, Nigerians have now found a new laughing stock in
Oshiomhole, who appears to have completely lost all bearings in his quest to
compete for media space with aides of the President and by so doing, throwing
every decorum to the dogs.
While the PDP has nothing but pity for Oshiomhole, who is
fast turning himself into President Buhari's court jester, our party will
henceforth not watch and allow him continue to make irresponsible, mundane and
unsubstantiated allegations of corruption, murder or mutiny against any member
of the PDP or any notable Nigerians, unchallenged.
The PDP therefore cautions those who brought Oshiomhole into
office, through a charade called a national convention, to immediately direct
him to regulate the lethargic words spewing out of his double-speaking mouth before
he derails our democracy.
Oshiomhole should be reminded that but for the cover
provided for him by President Buhari, he would have been under prosecution by
the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) over huge allegations of
pillaging the scarce resources of Edo State where he also trampled upon the
citizens, including poor widows, when he was governor.
However, with the collapse of the APC and its inevitable
defeat in 2019, Oshiomhole by now knows that his presidential cover will soon
be over and that he will surely face the full weight of the law.
